Graphic Content, Jacoby Arts Center

Wading In, acetone transfer and drawing

The last eight or nine months since I graduated from SIUE have been quite a whirlwind. I interned over the summer with the guys from Firecracker Press (who are awesome, in case you didn't know), taught in the Fall for the first time over at SIUE, and I now have finally had some time to sit down and make some art work. Developing a discipline outside of an academic environment is easier said than done, especially when working in the "real" world. Since things have slowed down a bit, I have been making an effort to work as much as I can to push my creative practice.

I am happy to say that I was juried into a show over at The Jacoby Arts center called Graphic Content. It is a group show, and I am looking forward to seeing the other works that were selected as well. I tried some different things with these pieces, and feel like this is a nice direction to be heading in for my works on paper. The opening is March 1, so stop by!
